Lädt ... Hollywood And the O.K. Corral: Portrayals of the Gunfight And Wyatt Earpvon Michael F. Blake
Keine Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch. An examination of the gunfight at the OK Corral as depicted in a series of movies. Getting the most attention is Tombstone, arguably the best of the movies. (Alternatively, the generally unpopular revisionist Doc is polished off in a few pages.). Lots of photos, plenty of movie lore, the book kicks off with a summary of the gunfight and its background. For OK Corral buffs and movie Western fans especially.
